Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Income disparities between developed and developing countries hinder global progress, while traditional funding sources like foreign aid and direct investment remain unreliable. This paper proposes a remittance-enhanced development model, grounded in the capability approach, to strengthen higher education in STEM fields. By investing remittances in tertiary education infrastructure and faculty training, developing countries can build human capital vital for innovation and long-term resilience. The model emphasizes aligning remittances-supported initiatives with national STEM priorities, particularly in remittance-dependent regions. This approach offers a sustainable, community-driven strategy for addressing inequality and fostering inclusive development. by empowering individuals through education. This paper concludes that remittances are repositioned as a transformative tool for advancing STEM education, preparing the Global South for a knowledge-based future.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
